Problem 2
Kim has a small container and a large container as shown.
[IMG]
It takes 16 of the small containers to fill the large container. Three small containers leave 1.95 gallons of space in the big container.
What is the size of each of the two containers?


Standard options: 
A. Solve linear equations in one variable.
B. Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.


Thought: The last three rows of the table in the first problem involves solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations. The second word problem can also be represented as two simultaneous linear equations.
Answer: B

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: a line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two proportionally, and conversely; the Pythagorean Theorem proved using triangle similarity.

Use congruence and similarity criteria for triangles to solve problems and to prove relationships in geometric figures.
problem_activity: Task
Milong and her friends are at the beach looking out onto the ocean on a clear day and they wonder how far away the horizon is.
About how far can Milong see out on the ocean?
If
Milong climbs up onto a lifeguard tower, how far is the horizon in Milong's view?
Mount Shishaldin lies on a narrow peninsula in Alaska  and is pictured here:
[IMG]
If Milong were to stand atop Mount Shishaldin and look out over the ocean, how far would the horizon be?
Based on the answers to the questions above,
is the distance of Milong's visual  horizon proportional to her elevation above the surface of the earth?  Explain.
